Best: Raiden
- Clan: Elder Gods/White Lotus Society
Raiden is one of the most iconic Mortal Kombat characters of all time. Known as the “Thunder God,” most of his offense and even defense is made up of moves connecting to electricity or lightning in some form. His story closely resembles that of Thor from Norse Mythology, both in his God-like status and his relationship with other Gods. His one mission in life is to protect Earthrealm from his father, brother, and others that will do it harm. Thus, he invented the White Lotus Society to prepare warriors for each Mortal Kombat Tournament.
